Interference from a non-grounded instrument near the patient and electro

surgery interference can causes problems with the waveform.
The ST algorithm has been tested for accuracy of the ST segment data. The

significance of the ST segment changes need to be determined by a clinician.
Before using Oximeter
Before using Daily Check, Oximeter or Sleep Monitor function, pay attention to the
following points in order to obtain precise measurements.

The finger inserted in SpO

Any of the following conditions may cause inaccurate measurements, including
but not limited to:
- Flickering or very bright light;
- Poor blood circulation;
- Low hemoglobin;
- Hypotension, severe vasoconstriction, severe anemia or hypothermia;
- Nail polish, and/or artificial nails;
- Any tests recently performed on you that required an injection of intravascular
dyes.

The Oximeter may not work if you have poor circulation. Rub your finger to
increase circulation, or place the SpO

The Oximeter measures oxygen saturation of functional hemoglobin. High levels
of dysfunctional hemoglobin (caused by sickle cell anemia, carbon monoxide, etc.)
could affect the accuracy of the measurements.

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio
(cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM
radio broadcast towers, and TV broadcast towers may affect accuracy.

The pleth waveform displayed on the device is normalized.
Warnings and Cautionary Advices
Limit finger movement as much as possible when using the Daily Check or

Oximeter, which might result in incorrect reading or analysis.
Do not use the Oximeter on the same hand/arm when using a blood pressure cuff

or monitor.
Do not use the Oximeter outside the specified operating and storage temperature

ranges.
Prolonged continuous SpO

of undesirable changes in skin characteristics, such as irritation, reddening,
blistering or burns.
Check the SpO

positioning of the sensor and the circulation and skin sensitivity of the patient.
sensor must be clean to ensure proper reading.
